AND THE HEAT
HAS TURNED DEADLY.
LAUREN: IT MAY ONLY BE THE FIRST
DAY OF SUMMER, BUT ACROSS THE
STATE, IT FEELS LIKE THE MIDDLE
OF THE SEASON.
93 DEGREES IN GILROY WEDNESDAY
AND IT IS ONLY EXPECTED TO GET
HOTTER THE REST OF THE WEEK.
>> IT'S BEEN QUITE HOT.
HAVING TO TRY TO SIT IN THE
KIDDIE POOL OR BEAT THE HEAT IN
DIFFERENT WAYS, LIKE GOING TO
THE LIBRARY.
LAUREN: GELSINGER AND MANY OTHER
FAMILIES ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF
THE AIR CONDITIONING AT THE
GILROY PUBLIC LIBRARY.
>> I GO TO THE LIBRARY, GET A
LOT OF BOOKS, STAY HOME AND
READ.
LAUREN: OTHERS ARE DECIDING TO
BEAT THE HEAT BY PLAYING IN THE
WATER AT GILROY GARDENS.
WHILE THE WARMER WEATHER MAY BE
FUN FOR SOME WITH THE HEAT HAS
PROVEN TO BE DANGEROUS FOR
OTHERS.
>> TYPICALLY, WE'RE MOST WORRIED
ABOUT THE ELDERLY AND THE VERY
YOUNG.
AND THOSE WHO ARE WORKING
OUTSIDE.
WE ARE MOST CONCERNED ABOUT
THOSE WHO ARE OUTSIDE, WHO MIGHT
BE WORKING THROUGH THE HEAT OF
THE DAY, MAKE SURE THAT THEY GET
SHADE AND REST AND WATER.
LAUREN: RIGHT NOW, TWO
CALIFORNIA COUNTIES ARE
INVESTIGATING DEATHS AS BEING
POSSIBLY HEAT-RELATED.
IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY, A
72-YEAR-OLD AND AN 87-YEAR-OLD
BOTH IN SAN JOSE.
AND IN SACRAMENTO COUNTY, THERE
HAVE BEEN 3 DEATHS IN THE PAST
WEEK.
THOSE WHO DIED ARE AGES 36, 49
AND 88.
THIS HEAT WAVE IS STRETCHING
FURTHER THAN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA THOUGH.
A FATHER AND SON DIED THIS WEEK
IN CARLSBAD CAVERNS NATIONAL
PARK IN NEW MEXICO BECAUSE OF
THE INTENSE HEAT.
THE HOT AND DRY COMBO ALSO THE
PERFECT STORM FOR FIRES.
THIS ONE, CURRENTLY BURNING MORE
THAN 1300 ACRES IN SONOITA,
ARIZONA.
FOUR HOMES HAVE ALREADY BEEN
DESTROYED AND MORE THAN 100 ARE
IN DANGER.
AND DON'T FORGET, WE ARE IN A
FLEX ALERT BECAUSE OF THIS HEAT
WAVE.
TURN OFF ALL UNNECCESARY LIGHTS.
TURN UP YOUR AC, OR TURN IT OFF
IF POSSIBLE.
